Eclair Mobile, which is an app that lets you manually run an eclair node on your phone, like Phoenix does. Doesn't handle channels for you, but allows you to manage your node more deliberately. (recommended by u/whitslack)
Phoenix, which is very similar to Breez. Developed by ACINQ, and uses eclair as a node.
lnd, developed by Lightning Labs.
c-lightning, developed by Blockstream.
Muun, which is probably the most seamless on-chain + lightning wallet out there.
RaspiBlitz.
BLW, an android-only wallet, which is also fairly feature-rich. (recommended by u/DajZabrij) BLW is deprecated, and replaced by SBW (same URL), the Simple Bitcoin Wallet.
Spark, specifically to interact directly with a c-lightning node. Designed for advanced users, offering a feature set. They're directly sponsored by Blockstream. (recommended by u/hMsats)
Umbrel.
Breez, which handles channel management for you. Has a few interesting built-in features. Runs an lnd node on your phone.As pointed out by u/whitslack: Breez makes lncli commands directly available to the user, allowing power users to do almost everything that an lnd node lets you do.
Default BlueWallet. When using their default LndHub instance, it's custodial. See below for non-custodial options.
